• Travel day between Kilkenny and Kenmare

    July 12, 2023 in Ireland ⋅ ☁️ 61 °F

    We all hurt bad this morning. Too many drinks while celebrating Mom. Totally worth it!
    Our driver, Paul, picked us up at 10am. He took us to Rock of Cashel, Titanic Experience and St. Coleman's Cathedral. He made stops along the way for food. We had our first sausage rolls - so dang good! We ate at a petrol station. Sounds so odd, but the food is actually really tasty and fresh. I had a turkey sandwich that tasted homemade.
    When we got to Kenmare, he took us to the local grocery store to stock up for our 3 days here. Can I just say how inexpensive the food is here?
    Kenmare has won Ireland's Tidy Town award for over 20 years in a row. And it shows. A very clean town. The population is a bit over 2,000. Paul was very proud to share these fun facts about his home town.
    This day we walked 4,310 steps.
    Paul was awesome. It was his birthday this day, but he had to turn around and drive 4 hours back to Dublin to meet more tourists.
